Transverse Waves
is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction perpendicular to the direction which the wave moves.
Longitudinal Waves
is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction which the wave moves.
Electromagnetic Waves
These waves have the capability to travel through vacumed space. Any waves from the electromagnetic spectrum is also able to travel through vacumed space.
Mechanical Waves
Such as sound, require a medium to travel.
